Review Quotes:
The book contains well over a decade of intensive research on union organizing strategy, campaigns, and activist development that is simply unparalleled....The primary strength of this book is its exhaustive examination of organizing within the confines of UK union renewal. Here, the book situates itself among leading labour renewal research in the UK, US, Canada, and Australia.
